a) Even if the the parallel C had a Q of 100 (and the typical Q of
a mica cap is much higher than this), this would place an
equivalent resistance of (QXc = 1800 ohm) across the
transformed Rr (a few ohms).
b) Running at 50W output (*MEASURED*; into a 50 ohm load), the
parallel capacitor doesn't get warm. So negligible power is being
dissipated in the capacitor.
I hope that my measurements may be of some value. I will not
attempt to discuss AC circuit analysis again on this list.
